Custom Gray Pleated RV Shades for 1987 Chevy Conversion Windows

Two Irvine product types to compare are pleated night shades and pleated day/night shades. These are identification and configuration references, not confirmation that either fits the 1987 Chevy frame. The manufacturer’s pleated color page lists Dark Gray Stitchbond 2Y among the opaque fabrics. It specifies an opaque fabric and rail color for a Nite shade, or opaque fabric, sheer fabric and rail color for a Day Nite shade. “Night” or “opaque” does not establish complete blackout, a light-blocking percentage or a match to an existing gray fabric; view a physical sample before choosing a color.

The reported 42 × 27¼ inches must be identified as window dimensions, available mounting space or finished-shade dimensions before selecting an order size. Use the manufacturer’s pleated measuring and ordering guidance for the identified mounting arrangement. Confirm frame depth, headrail and bracket clearance, required coverage and the actual cord hold-down positions. The guide does not approve the supplied dimensions as a finished custom fit for an unknown conversion-window frame.

Irvine’s pleated installation diagram shows upper mounting brackets, the headrail and separate lower cord hold-downs. It does not establish a service to redesign bottom rails, change screw-hole spacing, cover enlarged holes or eliminate rattling. Have the damaged mounting points and supporting material assessed before specifying the mounting method; no no-drill or plastic-frame attachment is approved here. Send photos and measurements through the contact details below for a configuration review. Do not mail the old shades without an agreed arrangement. This general answer does not promise mail-in measurement, expedited manufacture, a separate final-approval workflow or a repair result.
